It is extremely important you do not drive to your appointment. As the drops we use will cause your vision to become blurry and sensitive to light, this can invalidate your license. We recommend you use public transport or arrange somebody to take you to your appointment, select your clinic location above to find out more information on bus routes.
If you cannot use public transport and unable to arrange for somebody to bring you, you may be eligible for volunteer or non-emergency hospital transport. Please note: You may have to meet certain criteria, and volunteer transport may require a donation.
